The whole area benefits from the confluence of two very opposite climates such as the Atlantic and Mediterranean, providing annual rainfall and mild temperatures somewhat above 400 l/m2, very suitable conditions for the development of the vine.

The Regulations recognize the existence of three sub-areas with different wine characteristics: Red Alavesa the influence of the Atlantic climate and calcareous clay soils located on terraces and small farms predominate, in Rioja Alta also predominates Atlantic climate, while the soils are divided between the clay-limestone, clay and alluvial ferrous,.

Rioja Baja has a drier and warmer climate due to the Mediterranean influence in her alluvial soils and clay-ferrous type characteristic soils of Rioja also very suited to quality viticulture, as it has a balanced structure (sand, silt and clay), is slightly alkaline, low in organic matter and moderate water availability during the summer.

Taken together, the title has a variety of soils (clay limestone, ferrous and alluvial clay are the three dominant) and microclimate (orientation of the vineyard, protection from winds, etc..), Which give the wines a few quirks unique and allows, depending on the varieties and cultivation techniques, develop a wide range of wines with distinctive personality in the context of a common identity perfectly recognizable.
